Thanks a lot, that was the missing piece! So, for the record, here is a way to convert a table as a list of tuples for use in ocaml. Thanks again to everyone for the help in getting there. --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- #+name: mydata | x | 1 | 1.4 | | y | 2 | 4.5 | | z | 3 | 7.0 | #+name: table_to_tuple #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :results raw :var v='() (message (concat "[" (mapconcat (lambda (vlist) (concat "(" (mapconcat (lambda (val) (format "%S" val)) vlist ", ") ")")) v "; ") "]")) #+END_SRC #+BEGIN_SRC ocaml :noweb yes let x = <<table_to_tuple(mydata)>> in x #+END_SRC #+RESULTS: : - : (string * int * float) list = : [("x", 1, 1.4); ("y", 2, 4.5); ("z", 3, 7.)] --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
